You Am I - Up-A-Ways

======================



You know that I get told so many times

Boy you gotta grow you some roots

The wondering dues sounds oh so good in a tune

But you need some place to wipe off all the mud off your boots

C'mon and grab your hat

Your suitcase and cash

Pack up your dacks, your hat

You're leaving today

We're checking out to check out what's up a ways



Well you look past me with those sleepy eyes

Well girl I gotta leave before the sun catches me

As if your wondering ways don't suit me spending my days

I'm thanking god you aint around as I'm painting my nails



Come lay down your hat

Your suitcase and your stash

Just make damn sure you aint around

When those milk bottles hit the ground

Go on get lost there up a ways



Well she sure was pretty and she sure did kiss good

I almost saw her face cellotaped to my suitcase

I'm car sick I'm punch drunk and I don't like to fly

But there's always something far off that catches my eye



And its an age old tune

I only know where I am when I move

So pack up your smalls

Your Pall Malls, your ash tray

We're checking out to check out what's up a ways



Oh don't make me no coffee don't you butter my toast

I'll send you a polaroid by overnight post

Well blow me away if thats the best you can do

Just sweep off that dirt that fell off your boots



And its an age old tune

You only know where you are when you move

But boy this aint a relationship

so spare me all that gracious shit

go on get lost on up a ways



Oh just pack on up and I'm heading off up a ways



Oh just pack on up and I'm heading off up a ways
